Chapter 214: Besiege but Not Attack (I)

night

Viscount Winston and his troops slowly marched to the outside of the mercenaries' tents, and the mercenaries built a wooden camp about two meters high around their station as a simple fortification. The fastest

And this group of blood-licking mercenaries also knew the importance of the sentry, so the troops who were distributed to patrol all over the camp were also very dedicated.

Moreover, although the leaders of these mercenary groups are all unruly characters, at this time, they also know that there must be no infighting.

Therefore, many of the deployments and the arrangement of fortifications were discussed and resolved by these mercenary captains, and they all restrained their tempers and cooperated with their temporary comrades.

There are no blind spots between patrols, and the guards standing on the wooden barracks are all doing their best, so they can spot any enemy as soon as they appear.

Their camp was not far from the forest, and wood and firewood were abundant, so the whole camp was full of torches.

The lights all around them are brightly lit, and no wind or grass can escape their eyes.

Inside the camp, however, there was no tension in the camp, and the campfires were burning everywhere, and the scene was very lively, and they ate the food provided by William, and kept talking foul language to their companions, and blowing all kinds of cattle that they did not believe in.

They frolicked, chased and played, and even gambled on the spot with a sieve, and some gambled with their wrists, in short, the discipline was extremely poor, and the noise was overwhelming.

And looking at such a scene, the commanders of this group of mercenaries did not stop it, such a scene is too common among mercenaries.

This time they didn't live a drunken life that stirred up on women, which was already the result of restraint.

"Damn, they're enjoying it inside, and we're guarding the camp here, it's fucking unfair!"

A mercenary in rudimentary leather armor, spear in hand, leaned against the wooden barracks, complaining with his companions about the leader's unfair arrangement.

"Alright, bear with me, do you dare to resist the order of the group leader? Let's stay on the camp honestly! His companion exhorted.

"I know this, I just don't accept it, why can that guy from the black horse go in and enjoy it, and we have to defend here, obviously we are a group!"

The mercenary complained earlier.

The other mercenary tried to persuade him further, but his eyes widened and he looked intently down the camp.

"Huh? What's the situation? What are you looking at? The mercenary noticed his companion's abnormality, subconsciously looked in his direction, and asked at the same time.

"Yes...... There are enemies! Enemy Sneak Attack!! ”

The mercenary ignored his companion and looked at the group of menacing troops below, and let out a terrible alarm, and at the same time, the herald among the mercenaries also sounded the brass horn in his mouth after hearing the warning.

Several brass trumpets sounded on the walls of the camp, and the sharp sound reached the ears of each mercenary, who hurriedly put down the food in their hands.

Chaotic walked to his tent, ready to take out his weapons for the battle to come.

However, since their layout is really not in order, if it is changed to William's layout, there will definitely be a very neat camp.

However, it is obviously unrealistic for them to put out a strict and battle-worthy camp based on their discipline and habits.

There was a brief moment of chaos in the camp, with the mercenaries blocking everyone as others blocked their way.

After the mercenary leaders sent someone to organize, the group regained some order, returned to their tents, and took out their weapons and equipment.

"Attack!" Viscount Winston issued an order to the light infantry below, and as cannon fodder, they rushed to the improvised camp with more than five hundred mercenaries.

Viscount Winston watched the camp at night, and his main purpose in the night was to make a surprise attack, hoping to destroy the enemy.

But this purpose could not be achieved, the enemy was too heavily guarded, and they had just reached the bottom of the city walls when they were discovered by the enemy's defenders.

Therefore, Viscount Winston no longer had any hope of destroying the enemy directly, and he asked his soldiers to attack, the main purpose of which was to test the defensive strength of the camp.

If the defense of the camp is not as strong as it seems, then he can increase his offensive and take the camp down.

And if the fortifications were as strong as they seemed, then he could test the enemy's strength with a small loss of troops.

And, he's already halfway there......

More than 500 light infantry, led by more than 500 mercenaries, rushed to the camp, but since there were no archers among the mercenaries, they did not suffer any casualties on the way.

The nearly two-meter wooden camp did not need a ladder at all, and two people could climb it by lifting each other, but taking advantage of this opportunity, the defenders on the city wall began to kill and wound the enemy in large numbers.

The mercenaries on the walled city are all former sentinels, so the number is not very large, there are probably more than a hundred people, so it seems a little powerless in the face of the enemy's fierce attack.

Soon, some of the enemies climbed the city wall in this way, and the mercenaries who were originally rushing behind also saw that there were not many people on the city wall, so for the sake of merit, they squeezed away the light infantry in front of them and rushed forward.

At this moment, the situation on the walled city is even worse, the mercenaries hired by William's side are losing one after another, and even a third of the walled city has been occupied.

Viscount Winston was at the bottom of the city walls, riding on his standing horse, stroking his little hair with his hand and squinting his eyes.

"Let's get our men to rush too! It seems that the enemy's combat effectiveness is not very good, annihilate them all! ”

As he spoke, he mobilized the troops around him and began to rush towards the walled city.

However, just as his troops were about to approach the walled city, a mutation occurred at this time.

The mercenaries and light infantry who had already filled the walls were pushed down from the walled city one by one like dumplings.

Either become a corpse, or be crushed with injuries of varying severity.

The mercenaries they hired were not comparable to the mercenaries in the walled city, and Lolitsa was carrying a large mercenary group of more than 600 people.

If you can make friends with him, how can it be a weak mercenary group, and the people hired by Viscount Winston are all miscellaneous fish among some mercenaries.

It was not comparable to these mercenaries who were rolling on the battlefield at all, and they were quickly crushed by the mercenaries on William's side with unparalleled battlefield experience.

At the same time, they were defeated by their momentum, and therefore, without causing too many casualties, they were driven off the walled city.
